Thank you Matthew, So I need to copy python.c into some other file (e.g. snakemake.c) and make changes to it? What should I do after that? How do I compile it and where so I store it such that Geany will use it?

Adding a whole new parser and filetype is significantly more work compared to modifying the existing one and creating a "custom filetype" (see user manual). Regards, Matthew Brush
